Template:Cents/doc

This template calculates the cent value of its first argument (defaults to 1). An optional second argument controls the precision, it defaults to 0 decimal places.

This template should always be combined with the subst: keyword (i.e. substituted). The substitution is already carried out for the page preview. At save, the cent value is being placed into the wiki source.

Usage

Use this template like this

{{subst: cents|ratio|precision}}

Example

This input in the wiki source

{{subst: cents|3/2|5}}

produces the following output

701.95500

Intervals can even be typed as evaluable mathematical expressions. For example:

{{subst: cents|3^12/2^19|5}}

gives:

23.46001
